Walking is one of the best overall exercises and helps the entire system function better. The metabolism is increased while walking; thus, fat is burned up and weight loss is promoted. Blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and sugar levels tend to fall. Walking builds up the heart muscle and keeps the arteries clear and elastic. Walking helps increase the oxygen supply to the blood, thus bringing more oxygen to the heart. It also increases the capacity of the lungs, making more oxygen available to the circulatory system.
